According to EnergyTrend, a research division of TrendForce, cylindrical battery price performance reflects a downtrend due to Polymer battery supply crowd out and thinner consumer electronic devices. In addition, medium-high capacity battery (2.8~3.0Ah) can reduce the number of pieces used.
Rumors have it that the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry of Japan (METI) is considering revising PV subsidy downward to JPN￥34/kWh in 2014 and JPN￥30/kWh in 2015.
The Asia-Pacific region’s PV energy demands is exceeding Europe in 2013, due to emerging Chinese, Japanese and Indian markets, according to EnergyTrend, a green energy subsidiary of TrendForce. Due to high growth potential in China and Japan’s domestic market, it is estimated the Asia market demand will still be much higher than other markets. Emerging markets in Asia will maintain high stable growth, especially after a two year preperation phase.
With countries successively releasing PV subsidy policies, the cumulative amount of grid-connected installations has gradually increased. Solar power plants have even become the major investment product in the eyes of international investors. According to EnergyTrend, a research division of TrendForce, the oversupply issue still exists in recent solar market.
According to EnergyTrend, a research division of TrendForce, demand for PV self-consumption continues to increase in Europe due to the decreased FiT and the increased electricity price and surcharge fees for grid-connection. Besides, the installation area for roof-top systems is somewhat limited, thus relevant users mostly pay more attention on the amount of electricity generated. This, along with concerns toward visual and aesthetic quality, has caused demand for mono-si cells to increase significantly.
